Why Washing Too Much Can Have The Opposite Effect Of Curing Acne


There is no denying the fact that if you want to keep your skin healthy and clean, you must cleanse your face on a regular basis.

However, it is important you understand that over-washing your face can actually have the opposite effect of curing acne.

Finding a balance between not enough and too much can help you maintain a glowing face.

There have been studies that have found applying too many creams, moisturizers and medications to your face will actually do more harm than good.

Washing your face five or six times a day while applying countless creams every morning and night can actually worsen the condition while creating overly-dry or oily skin.

Wanting to keep your face clean and healthy is a good thing.

Few desire to have a face filled with blemishes as this can be painful and rather embarrassing.

However, you do not need to spend a great deal of money on various chemical products or lotions just to keep your face clean.

Sometimes the best method is nothing more than soap and lukewarm water.

Of course, for some warm water and soap is just not going to cut it.

If this is the case, you will want to look at what options there are to choose from.

There are several lotions, creams and moisturizers out there which is why it may be in your best interest to seek advice from a dermatologist.

This is especially true being that everyone has a different skin type.

Regardless, the best way to go about curing acne is to keep it simple.

If you can get away with it, wash your face once a day with soap and pat the skin dry with a soft towel.

If you do need some kind of medical regimen that has been prescribed by a doctor, continue to wash your face once a day but no more.

What you will find is even washing your face with soap and warm water too much can create problems.

What ends up happening is rubbing your face with soap and water too much can lead to some of the lesions exploding.

As a result, this simply creates more infections on the skin thus worsening the problem.

A lot of times you will find doctors prescribe medicated creams or oral medication that will gradually cure your acne.

This is effective because you are not applying multiple creams to the face and are not constantly irritating it by rubbing the skin too much.

Curing acne can be simple if you understand what not enough and too much is.
